Rewritten (2014)

Silk, love letters, mixed media, 78" x 54"

A circle is a continuous line without beginning or end, which is why we use it as a symbol of union. But a circle can also be constructed out of straight lines. These lines give the illusion of continuity where it doesn’t exist: a broken line masquerading as a solid one.

I made this piece as a way to reconstruct, both visually and textually, an important union in my life, after it had ended.
